@blackvapour Fuck you.? tin foil hat brigade……. just cuz we are not sleeping sheep.
@brentbiles True. It’s a shame because it’s otherwise a very informative and funny video. But as is always the case, the tin-foil hat? brigade have to go too far.
This is a rather misleading video. It states again and again that the Fed is run by Ben Bernanke. It leaves out the fact? that the banks that make up the Fed are privately owned and actually are run by their individual CEO’s. Bernanke only oversees them in terms of regulation. This is just a ridiculous video. Sorry but the Fed is not run by Ben Bernanke.
@survivalizer?
True but sooner or later if not already our government would have complete control over us, so we have to act fast.
@id493337 Agreed. There is a lot that needs to change, we all need to “hang together or we will all hang separately”, to plagiarize from one of the greats…. We can’t really do much about the government individually but we can vote and we can change our lives for the better as much as possible. If enough of us change our lives we? win.
@reLENTless1897 liqidity trap is when you print too much money? and it doesnt help the economy
@survivalizer
oh… they admit, then I believe them. I thought so before hand anyways. Well this country is skewed and even more so? if they pass the National Defense Authorization Act.
@id493337 Because they admit to exactly what they? are doing. Believe it or not, doesn’t change the fact that a group of private bankers have control of the currency.

I? think it is hilarious! Ron Paul 2012!!!
throwin this out there, without bernanke in the FED, we would be in even deeper shit than we are now… you can? thank Hank Paulson for fucking the economy by deciding not to bail out lehman brothers…
@reLENTless1897 Who is investment borrowing??
“The Ben Bernank has? no policy experience”
@survivalizer
Why would I look up something the fed made when they are the one on trial? oh.. wait, guilty until proven innocent thing or is it the other way around… I forgot. I will look at it but? I won’t believe it automatically.
QE is being used because we are in a liquidity trap which means that interest? rates are zero bound (meaning nearly zero) and cannot be pushed any lower to stimulate investment, borrowing
@reLENTless1897 how the fuck does this get marked as spam

this is fantastic — must show my family !!! (added to? favorites)
I wish it was this simple & clearcut – unfortunately the corruption does seem to be this simple (Sachs Sachs Sachs). OTOH “Printing money is the last refuge of…” -if it works I’m fine by it. 5:15 it seems probable that the economy could have collapsed without this “easing”. 6:13 “most economists..” havent heard this before.? Videos are great, but the problem is that stuff cant be verified – meaning information cannot be really trusted. e.g. AFAIK the fed did not help *cause* the housing bubble.
@id493337 look? up “putting it simply” produced by the federal reserve.
@reLENTless1897 THE FED doesnt “print”money it more or? less changes its balance sheet electronically.
Quantitative easing? is not the printing of money. Instead it is an unconventional monetary policy in which the FED purchases a variety of assets from banks thereby increasing their liquidity. This will take pressure off banks to loan money. QE is being used because we are in a liquidity trap which means that interest rates are zero bound (meaning nearly zero) and cannot be pushed any? lower to stimulate investment, borrowing
Stock and bond prices are higher than a year ago? ?
But stock? prices are lower than a year ago, right? Which is bad.
The Ben? Bernank.
